About the antenna

Your Nokia phone has a retractable antenna. For best performance, fully extend the antenna during use.

Normal position

Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.

Tips on efficient operation

As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is switched on. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.

Checking signal strength

Your phone operates on radio waves. Radio signal coverage is maintained by a wireless network, and the quality of calls on your phone depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.
